As many of you know by now, we love anything that can haul a child, or multiple versions, while we ourselves go for a ride. This ride being probably one of the few times we will ever garner anything resembling exercise. We also love bicycles, and the various forms they take. The surrey was, and technically still is, our flagship. Italian engineering with FIAT rack&pinion steering, the fully air-conditioned surreys have been trotting around families for years. Then along came the Alley Cat, perfect for the child still clinging onto those training wheels with their death-grip of fear. Soon after he had the Tag-a-Long, because thanks to uber-fertilization, parents needed to haul 2 or more kids at a time. So we went out and found something to help lighten the load, per say. Say hello, to The Madsen Cargo Bike.
American intuition, and a family with lots of kids to haul around, formulated this little gem. Touted as the mini-van of cycling, the Madsen can seats up to 4 small children in it’s cargo bucket. This is no normal bucket mind you. It houses 2 bench seats with seatbelts, and boasts an incredible load capacity of 600lbs. So getting the kids in is no problem, where to take them might be. With it’s ease of use and 8-spd shifter, anyone from big sister to Grandpa Joe will be able to scoot them from mini-golf to the ferris wheel and back.
We will be renting them by the hour $18, day $45, and week $99, if you would like to take the troop for a spin. Reserve them today.
The Madsen is just one of many great new brands that we are bringing in here this season, and we are excited to be the EXCLUSIVE dealer for New Jersey and Philadelphia. So when you are down here, try it out for the week. If you like it, come talk to us and we can get one for you, all put together shiney and new.
